Let's divide 744148 by 3
We want to divide 744148 by 3.

Let's proceed to step 1:
When dividing 7 by 3, we get 2 with a remainder of 1.
Use 2 as the next digit of our solution. 
Result so far: 2.0
Deduct 6 from 7 and we're left with 1.
Grab the next digit (4) from the dividend, add it to 1, then carry on: 14 / 3

Advancing to step 2:
When dividing 14 by 3, we get 4 with a remainder of 2.
The number 4 becomes the next digit in our result. 
Result so far: 24.0
The remainder is 2 after subtracting 12 from 14.
Bring next digit (4) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 24 / 3

Moving on to step 3:
24 divided by 3 is 8 with a remainder of 0.
Record the quotient 8 as the next digit in the result. 
Result so far: 248.0
Deduct 24 from 24 and we're left with 0.
Grab the next digit (1) from the dividend, add it to 0, then carry on: 1 / 3

On to step 4:
1 divided by 3 is 0 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 0. 
Result so far: 2480.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 0 from 1.
Take the next digit (4) from the dividend and append it to 1, then repeat: 14 / 3

On to step 5:
The number 3 fits into 14 4 times, leaving a remainder of 2.
Write down 4 as next digit of the result. 
Result so far: 24804.0
Subtract 12 from 14 to get 2.
Bring next digit (8) of the dividend behind the 2 and repeat the process: 28 / 3

Advancing to step 6:
28 divided by 3 is 9 with a remainder of 1.
Put 9 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 248049.0
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 27 from 28.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Moving on to step 7:
10 divided by 3 is 3 with a remainder of 1.
The next digit of our result is 3. 
Result so far: 248049.3
Deduct 9 from 10 and we're left with 1.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Let's proceed to step 8:
When dividing 10 by 3, we get 3 with a remainder of 1.
Put 3 as the next digit of the answer. 
Result so far: 248049.33
The remainder is 1 after subtracting 9 from 10.
Since there are no more digits in the dividend, we add a zero to the remainder making it 10, and continue the process.

Our division results in 248049.33 with a remaining 0.001.
